The Strongest Gene Chapter 1
Next Chapter
In the City Library.
It’s been a long time since someone set foot in the historical section. It was covered with thick layers of dust. A young man is looking for something.
” No…..not here….”
The young man muttered with disappointment.
Shaking his head, he closed the book.
‘Cut!!’
A stabbing pain.
On his hand, there was a long bloodstain.
“Its happening again….”
The young man gave a wry smile. He has been careful enough, but he still did not expect he would get a cut by a page.However, he is not surprised and was used to this sort of things.
His name is Chen Feng, 22 years old, since the day he was born, bad luck has been following him.
When he was a year old, he was almost choked to death while drinking milk. Three years old, his mother passed away. Five years old, his father passed away. Ten years old, his welfare institution went bankrupt and later, he was sent to other welfare institutions, till he became an adult. Altogether, there were 13 welfare institutions that collapsed for various reasons.
In addition to this, every time he goes out,he meets with some accident.
According to his incomplete statistics so far, he was blackmailed 85 times by old woman, he met with traffic accidents 36 times , he was patronized by thieves 76 times, he fell into a sewer 10 times, he was chased and bitten by dogs 15 times. Him being alive is already a miracle..
In contrast to other things, today’s incident was nothing.
His purpose for coming here today is to find the legendary “lucky artifact”
He doesn’t believe in this but his experience from infancy to adult has made him believe that in this world there exists something called luck and his life has been affected with bad luck! So, from the age he became sensible, he read all mythical books, looking for something that is able to lift his bad luck!
” Luck beads, jade carp, four-leaf clover…”
He has tried all these things which represent luck, but all of these were completely useless!
His bad luck has not changed.
Until one day, he saw an information in the written records left behind by his father. The Fate Stone, in legend, it is said that owning it can change one’s own destiny.
His father is an archaeologist, he had examined ancient things his whole life but didn’t find anything valuable. There is also not much information on the Fate Stone.Over the years, he has gone to all kinds of strange places to find the Fate Stone, but he has never seen it.
Does it really exist?
He was suspicious.
His request is not big. He just wanted to live like an ordinary person, that is all.
However……
Live?
No, solely to live also has become very difficult. Every time he goes out, he has to be unbelievably vigilant, and just with a little bit of slack, he might die in the middle of the road!
This world has become a battleground for him.
” Where the hell are you?”
Chen Feng sighed, he quietly took out alcohol from his schoolbag to disinfect his wound and wrapped the gauze on his hand. As a person who gets hurt every day, his bag contains a first aid kit.

The sky has turned dark.
The library will also close soon. Chen Feng was ready to leave, but his foot slipped and stumbled beside a bookshelf, a pile of book came crashing down on him.
” Damn!”
Chen Feng cursed.
He knew it wouldn’t go smoothly.
He looked at the place where he slipped,there was actually some water stains on the ground, he looked up and there was a leakage in the roof.
” Really….”
Chen Feng couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
Bad luck played its role again
With an aching body, he got up and was about to leave, when his body suddenly froze. Amidst the pile of ancient books,there was one book that captured his attention.
Title – The Luck
” This thing…..”
Chen Feng became a little curious.Unexpectedly, there was really a book on luck.
He carefully opened it.
It was introduced in large length about all various kind of strange luck, from universal astrology to cosmic sign, Chen Feng had seen this in many other books also,the majority of the content were just nonsense,this book is more like a 20 dollar pirated mixture of different books.
“Sure enough”
Chen Feng gave a self-ridicule smile,but then, suddenly his body became stiff.
Because when he turned to next page, a name appeared- The Fate Stone!
It doesn’t matter from which ancient book it was pirated from,because here on the introduction of Fate Stone, there was an incredibly detailed description.
The Fate Stone: The rumored luck artifact
In rumours it is said that there is a kind of power it holds, which is above ordinary power, it can not be seen, but it affects everything.So far no one knows what kind of power it is.Only it is known that perhaps it may be related with the luck and the Fate Stone can control its power.
“It really exists”
Chen Feng’s mouth become dry with excitement.
He turned the page to read the following description,but his eyes became wide,on this page there was the image of the Fate Stone. He was completely stunned, as this was not the first time Chen Feng saw the shape of the Fate Stone.
It was the image of coin sized object with some strange patterns on it.
“Is this the Fate Stone?”
Chen Feng voice trembled,this was not because of image,but due to other thing,Chen Feng opened the collar,and revealed the thing he was wearing on his neck.Unexpectedly, it was the Fate Stone that was shown in the book!
“How is this possible?”
Chen Feng was shocked.
The Fate Stone…..all this time he has been wearing it?
When he was born, his father gave to him as gift, this is also father’s only relic, this was actually the Fate Stone? But if this is the Fate Stone, then, how come he is always in bad luck?
Is it a fake?
Or is it a replica made by the father?
Chen Feng held back the shock and continued to read.
It is rumored that the Fate Stone has an extraordinary power, but it not easy to use.Before activation,the Fate Stone will continue to absorb the surrounding luck,after absorbing enough luck, it will activate.So if you don’t have the power to activate it,then, for you, it will be a nightmare.

“Damn it!”
Chen Feng couldn’t help but burst out foul language.
Absorbing the surrounding luck?
His whole body became cold,he finally understood the source of his bad luck!
His father got this Fate Stone from ancient tomb and gave it to himself
“This thing…”
Chen Feng subconsciously wanted to pull it away,but he wasn’t able to.
“It can’t be removed through conventional ways?’
Chen Feng calmed down and looked down again.
The Fate Stone cannot be taken down after it has been worn,only after activating it, you can control its power.If you accidently got it, then you should activate it.
Next,the method for activation is provided.
Chen Feng looked at it, it was not difficult.As long as he put array with his own blood and put the Fate Stone in the middle, it will activate.
“So simple?”
Chen Feng frowned.
He didn’t feel right about it, but the temptation of losing this damned bad luck was great that even he had dreamed of discarding this bad luck and living his life!
“Let’s try”
Chen Feng pulled down the gauze.
With blood on the finger,he drew the strange array on the wooden floor,Chen Feng’s face was very serious.He then put the stone in the middle of the array.
“Buzz–”
A strange light flashed,
Chen Feng’s mind shook crazily.
AAAA!!
The blood in the array condensed and turned into a red light.The Fate Stone gave out an amazing halo.Chen Feng became excited,he noticed an engraving on the light: “The stone of when it activates,will absorb all the surrounding luck,to complement the energy required by it.”
Not good!
Chen Feng’s complexion changed greatly.
Absorbing all the luck?This was not written in this damned pirated book!!,the Fate Stone didn’t even activate after twenty years.What happens when all the luck is instantaneously absorbed??
He doesn’t know
Go!
Without any hesitation,Chen Feng turned around to run.
However,at this moment, the whole library shook.
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
Earthquake!
Chen Feng didn’t even have time to escape ,he got buried under huge boulders, his vision became dark and he lost his consciousness, he only vaguely remembered that the Fate Stone flashed a golden light on his neck.
*At night.*
*A news channel.*
“At six in the evening,there was a slight earthquake in the city.The city library collapsed on the spot,causing death of one person.according to the relevant department investigation,it may be associated with jerry-built projects….”
*******
It was dark.
There was chaos in the consciousness.
After a long time, Chen Feng’s consciousness returned.He slowly opened his eyes.The blurred world became clearer,but the surroundings were still dark ,and nearby, a strange fishy smell was coming.
“Where is this?”
Chen Feng looked puzzled
Surrounded by darkness, only the faint glimmering light on his wrist allowed him see, this place looked like a cave ,as far as he can see there was only darkness.
“Strange, I am not dead?”
Chen Feng was shocked.
He looked at the glittering wristband and felt memories not belonging to himself,he suddenly understood.
He crossed through!
He had searched through various mythological books,naturally also read lot of novels,thinking of the golden light before death.Chen Feng somewhat understood, that the fate stone absorbed all the luck,triggering the earthquake, but because of successful activation of the fate stone,it didn’t let him die and made him crossed through here!
“I’m alive”
Chen Feng was excited.
Of course he was excited.His bad luck has finally disappeared!But,in the end what kind of world is this?At this moment, the memory of the original master completely emerged.
Chen Feng went through the memories and was impressed by it.
This world is somewhat similar to Earth,but also at the same time, entirely different.After getting a great breakthrough in genetic research, the whole world entered into the era of genes.Human beings can not only develop their own potential ,but can also fuse genes with genetically mutated organisms.Almost everyone can have genetic abilities!
Some people use this ability in work to become industry elite.And some people, after gene fusion, get super combat powers and they are known as genetic warrior.
Thus,the world changed.
The emergence of genetic ability made the whole world enter a state of rapid development.
But…..
Earth’s resources are close to being exhausted,so they started looking for different planet’s.
This continent, this planet, is the greatest wealth of mankind! It has it’s own moon and sun which is similar to Earth’s.Except with size which seemed to be countless times larger! The size of continent itself is ten thousand times larger than earth.
There is no shortage of resources in this world!
Because so far,the development of continent progress is only 18%!
Even though the technology of human can easily travel through stars,but there are lot places on this planet where humanity doesn’t dare to step in!
For example-ice field of north
The rumours are that there exist some certain kind of special ability,making the time nearly static,if a person enters that place,till eternity he cannot come out!the gene union in past had sent some group of genetic warriors and then they never heard the news of them.
Another example-the peak of burning volcano!
There are rumours that there is a ancient mutant beast sleeping ,once it drank up the whole river,after that, the place has become restricted land for humanity.
Like this there are many similar places.
It is dangerous world but also a magical world!
Chen Feng’s eyes shined brightly
This world is more exciting than he has imagined!
And…
This is only one part of it.
According to the memory of original owner,the era of gene has produced many mysterious and astonishing technological equipments.
Some people continue to fuse gene,got super high combat ability, and some people through constant fusion genes, got mysterious genetic ability!
For example-the founder of storm technology,the world’s largest technology company-Luo yuan.
His ability is digitalization,the user can release some mysterious ability to detect their own genetic status,mental sate,even the degree of techniques you grasp, according to muscle memory.he was despised by countless people because of non-combat type of genes.
However, luo yan after years of experiment,extracted this mysterious and profound ability, he manufactured wristband that everyone can wear, which has created a legend!
As long as you activate the wristband,you can examine your own state.
Therefore
Today,this world is not only the era of genes,but also the era of data!

When Plush comes to Shove
An: So the last synopsis wasn’t really all that good, it was just some mumbo jumbo with no actual point to it so I decided to make a new one that’s a bit more accurate. Leo Lush, just your average everyday (slightly chubby) schmuck, or at least he would be if he didn’t carry around a stuffed toy everywhere he went.I mean, he was a man who could read the atmosphere a bit so put it away in his bag whenever having a stuffed toy out would be rude but other than that he brought it with him all the time, it was a memento from his girlfriend who had died three years ago and keeping it close made him feel better. That’s also why his classmates gave him the nickname “Plush”, though that's neither here nor there. One day at the train station he’d lost his dearest stuffed toy, one of his classmates found it and lobbed it towards him, something that they’d already done many times before, but this time something went wrong and Leo found himself falling in front of the train due to the force of the throw. Now follow Leo as the spirit that developed in his stuffed toy and killed him forces his ghost into another world to possess a different stuffed toy. He doesn’t know much about the world or why he’s there but what he does know is that according to a magic book his girlfriend was also sent to this very world when she died in a plane accident three years ago. An: For those who want to know a bit more about what kind of story this will be: I want it to be a chill feel-good story and stay as far away from those despair-fest stories as possible (No offense to people who enjoy them, I’m just not one of you)Let me make something clear; I’m not writing this story with hope of it becoming really top tier among RRL (Though it did get above rank 500 once which I’m still very proud of even though it’s gone back down to ~850 at the time of writing this) I just want to write a story that I would enjoy reading, that’s why I’ll be mostly skipping over a lot of the parts that I skip when I read other stories, such as stats, the exact value of money and other such precise statistics that no one(as far as I’m aware) really cares about all that much. Just feels like a lot of effort for something superfluous.There’s a single exception and that’s one of the battles, it’s not a despair-fest or anything but it’s got a different feel than the rest of the story due to me being in a funky mood while I was writing it.

Shattered Realms - A Pathfinder/D&D game
Broke adventurers looking for a quick and easy paycheck are thrust together as circumstances around them get weirder and weirder. Authors note: This is an ongoing Pathfinder (DnD) game, which will inevitably contain references to other works due to the nature of nerds. Chapters will be random lengths, mostly as long as a game session and depending on how much I can embelish it. Also, some details may change retroactively to maintain consistency. I'm not going to write it as LitRPG, mostly because that's extra work. I'd rather the flow of the story not be interrupted by numbers. I am aiming for updates within a week or two of the game session, which will usually be weekly. Finally, there is a light swearing, gore and sexual references warning. I will update this warning if needed, but will also not write in anything that's too graphic or irrelevant to the story.
